Heh, just you wait, you haven’t seen nothing yet.

XD  Well then right back at ya partner for CG4!!  O_O

Nice reports!!  Awesome pictures as always.  The battle happening in Report 9 is so cool to see.  I’m still just so glad that we document these epic games and big battles.

Yes, that’s sir Edward from F&S.

But that’s the problem and where my confusion comes from.  The name of the crew is Sir Edmund, not “sir Edward”.

I wonder, did someone actually made a Cursed fleet with 2 – 3 sea monsters, for 80 points, that’s actually playable?

Not that I recall offhand, though it’s probably been done.  I like using them at [Read more]

With 4 cargo Divine Dragon can carry linked El Fantasma, helmsman, sir Edward and 2x oarsmen.

The link makes 5 spaces.  4 of those crew take up space, leaving one still open.

Who is “sir Edward”?  I thought you were talking about Sir Edmund from F&S.  Why would you need a reducer crew if you’re not even close to being over on points?

The Di…[Read more]

What’s the most unlikely string of luck you’ve had in a game? I just had one where I got an extra action off of Admiral Morgan 6-7 times in a row, with no re-rollers. And I still lost lol.

O_O  Nice.

Just this past turn in CG4, both the Pirates AND The Cursed got 6’s on their first roll attempts for an ability.  Sure only 2 rolls, but the magnit…[Read more]

I assume that’s more of a deathmatch fleet?

A simple Divine Dragon setup with Fantasma, helmsman, and 3 oarsmen (or 4 since Fantasma links) should do well.  Hellfire is a solid “stock” or “numbers” gunship.  I love the Juggernaut actually, I think she is possibly more underrated than Hellfire.

Given the above, and assuming it has the Cog keyword, I’d say that’s a 9-10 point ship

Agreed.  May seem high at first but cargo is very valuable and the Cog ability is quite good.

This was my initial idea behind the Cog ability, though I’m open to criticism and discussion over whether or not this is a good idea. You suggestion of making it be the cogs action instead only really hinders it by forcing the cog to sit for 1 turn with whatever cargo it gathered, making it fairly vulnerable for a 1 masted ship with no inherent d…

Cog: Once per turn, a friendly ship within S of this ship may explore her as a free action. (I forgot equipment was a thing)

This may work, but the free action coming from outside the ship makes it prone to exploitation.  Example: Is the once per turn for each friendly ship exploring this ship?  Or once per turn that ONE friendly ship can e…[Read more]

Since then, I have then been learning all I can about the game. Thanks for creating this site and the podcasts Ben. I assumed it would be a hunt to find information on the game, but you have provided a wealth of it. Amazing job!

Welcome aboard!  And thank you!  😀

Sorry of the long post.

Don’t be.

These are interesting ideas.  I think the word you’re looking for is “lateen” sail.  Unless lanteen is an alternate spelling I’m not aware of.

The only improvements I would suggest are to the wording of the abilities.  It’s best to be as concise and clear as possible, while sticking to what Wizkids wrote so pe…[Read more]
